    Thanks for the wonderful memories. My late father used to work at Healy Mills in the 70s and 80s working shifts. I remember fondly (before health and safety) he used to take me occasionally on the Friday afternoon shift when it was very quiet and I could climb into the locos as a 10 year old in the service shed and enjoy myself. Damn I miss my dad 😢

    Use to work some shifts at Healy Mills in 90's , we had small shed for basic loco maintenance ,it was worked by Immingham TMD staff would only get one loco normally , got nick named Easy Mills , had nice walks down the river whilst working there . Was normally a class 37 , we could reblock there but easier way was to contact ops to get it on gas train , because it ended up at Immingham (hated blocking them )

    @jeffreyhodge5564 I thought that myself when I watched videos on youtube of videos of european marshalling yards.... I personally think that it's because a lot of the european countries are bigger than the UK, and they transport a lot of their goods to and from other european countries by rail, neccesatating the use of marshalling yards to get the wagons to the right points to cross the appropriate border... Marshalling yards didn't really work in the UK because of the small size of the country and by the time that the wagons had been shunted more than once it was easier and quicker to transport it by lorry.

    As a BR fireman back in the mid to late 60's we had regular turns with heavy freight trains from Trafford Park Sidings often with an 8F more likely a 9F or a returning Austerity WD 2-8-0. We'd often have to join the queue to release our train to be shunted, ready to work back. Hard to accept the whole area sidings have disappeared.

    I remember in the 70's when it was full of freight wagons even then they said it only worked at 2 3rd capacity After the ASLEF strike in the 80's most of the wagon load freight was lost and these yards went into decline. A real shame the railways were not invested in more so we did not have so many problems on our over crowded roads today.

    I went to Healy mills about seven or eight years ago. We did a rescue exercise with Yorkshire Fire and Rescue along with a Team of Paramedics. We were using old Freight wagons, I think they have probably been scrapped by now. It was certainly a Busy place in it`s day.

    Built at a massive cost as a result of an appalling lack of foresight and crazy transport policy changes. The conventional truck freight wagon size was just about right for Britain's roads. Now we have the nightmare of these monstrous lorries which cause havoc on a megalithic scale throughout the road system. Crazy . . . .

    I recall the yard was full of coal MGR hoppers. But as the coal mines closed the need the coal hoppers was reduced. During the early 2000s the yard was all but closed and spent most of its life storing old BR locos being prepared for scrap.

    Brings back memories. My grandpa was a railway enthusiast. He lived in Ossett. Often if I went to stay with him he'd take me in the car to Healey Mills. Either we'd park on the bend on Storrs Hill looking down on the yard or else we'd park on the bridge at the bottom, and we'd watch the passenger trains go round the outside and the freight trains shunting in the yard. That was in the early 70s.
